I agree with Ryan with the fact that we all(well most of us) want to be more masculine(not that we need T to make us more masculine, and not that masculinity has a definitive sector of the spectrum laid out for definition), and thus we should accept the fact that T can make us a bit more aggressive, or at least have a shorter fuse than we normally would have without Testosterone, because it is typical in biological men to be so.
However, I think you took what he said the wrong way. He meant that when someone drinks, they're more likely to have less of a filter and much could be said about us being on Testosterone. Testosterone would give any FTM more confidence, and also because there are hormones going crazy, give us a shorter fuse and thus lack of the filter that we might have had before. I think that's all he meant
And I think what he meant by you being stereotypical was that it's stereotypical to denote men as being masculine in the sense that they're aggressive. There are sensitive men in the world, but if you're a sensitive person before T(sensitivity is not a "girly" trait afterall. It's just found more often in females than in males, and if not found more often, then it is spoken of more often from females) then you're going to be sensitive AFTER T, just maybe not as much as you were before. If you're the type of person to talk about your emotions, then you will most likely be after T. Ryan didn't mean anything stereotypical from his statement, and I'm sure tekla didn't mean to be offensive.
I think this is all you guys just twisting eachothers words lol
We're here to support one another guys, not have cockfights.
BTW, Testosterone is a hormone, and it effects everyone differently. There will be no PERSONALITY changes. There may be more mood swings, less mood swings, etc. It's hard to tell. It will however, most likely give you more confidence and give you the illusion of being more aggressive, much like an alpha male would. We are animals afterall.
